When to Apply for Work and Travel USA

The Work and Travel program is a short-term international exchange program for students during the summer vacations. Therefore, timely registration plays a key role. If you decide to participate, it means that you aim to meet the official deadlines of the program and start working in the USA on time. At first glance, it may seem that there is enough time to register and you can take your time. However, despite the fact that the program is held in the summer, we strongly recommend not to postpone registration. Registration for the program starts in September and runs through mid-February. The fall period (September through November) is considered the most active and productive. At this time you can register at the best price, as the cost of the program increases every month. In addition, payment for the program is staggered - you do not need to pay the full amount immediately upon registration. Enrolling in a program in the fall gives you more time to find an employer, improve your English, and prepare for your J-1 visa interview at the U.S. Embassy/Consulate. Spring will come sooner than you think, and one of the most important events awaits you - the embassy interview.
